Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said the United States has floated a new European security arrangement as part of efforts to end Russia’s war, and he warned Moscow could exploit wider talks to weaken NATO and alter borders. According to Zelenskyy, Washington also asked for the first time whether Ukraine would pull back from parts of eastern Donbas it still controls in exchange for NATO membership. He maintained Kyiv will not surrender territory and said Ukraine is negotiating a broad package with partners that could include NATO and EU guarantees, military support, financing and recovery aid. If the US and other NATO allies confirm such terms, Zelenskyy said, he would ask Ukrainians whether they support accepting it.
